Access to starting point:
From Horjul or Dobrova we drive to Polhov Gradec, and then we continue driving towards Črni vrh. Right at the spot, where we notice the sign for the end of Polhov Gradec, we continue right in the direction of Mačkov graben and church of St. Uršula. Further, we drive only for a short time because road quickly brings us to the next crossroad by which we then park on a little large parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot in Mačkov graben we continue straight in the direction of farm Gonte, Tošč and Grmada (sharply right Setnica, St. Uršula and Grmada) on at first still asphalt road which is moderately ascending by Mačkov graben, a stream on which we notice numerous smaller dams, through which flows water. The road ahead leads past few houses, and then it narrows and loses an asphalt covering. The road then turns to the left, and we go straight and we continue the ascent on a cart track which starts ascending a little steeper by the already mentioned stream. Higher, the cart track turns sharply left and only a little higher brings us out of the forest on panoramic grassy meadow, on which we then in few minutes ascend to the farm Jelovčnik (686 meters), where we again step in the forest.
Further, the path slightly descends and is gradually turning a little more to the right. After few minutes of easy walking path again steeply ascends, and after few minutes of additional walking brings us out of the forest, where in front of us we notice tourist farm Gonte.
From the farm Gonte we continue right in the direction of Grmada (left Tošč) and we continue the ascent on a panoramic grassy slope. Higher, the path flattens, and after a short descent brings us into a lane of a forest, where it again starts ascending. The path which ahead runs on and by northern ridge of Grmada, higher ascends even steeper and it brings us to a short with a steel cable secured part (undemanding). Higher, the path brings us out of the forest, and we quickly step on the main ridge, where from the left at first joins the path from Topol and only few meters ahead also the path from Belica and Mala Grmada. In both cases we continue right and after few steps of additional walking, we step on a panoramic peak.
